Two cases when "Watch this page" checkbox status would not match watchlisted status of a structured task article:
(a)
- a user has "Add pages and files I edit to my watchlist" Preference-Watchlist option disabled
- a user adds an article to the Watchlist by clicking on the star
- a user sees the watchlisted article in the structured task recommendation on Homepage - goes to an article and does some editing
- a dialog box will display the "Watch this page" checkbox unchecked - and if a user wouldn't check this box, Watchlisted article would become un-watched
(b)
- from Homepage a user gets to a structured task article
- and clicks on the star to add it to Watchlist before to start working on structured edits
- after finishing doing structured task (accepting links or accepting an image) the "Publish changes" dialog displays the "Watch this page" checkbox disabled
- clicking Publish would remove the article from the Watchlist
Note:
- "Watch this page " for VE "Save your changes" dialog would reflect the watchlisted status of the edited page. The Console will display "Uncaught TypeError: this.checkboxesByName is null" though.
- The issue is present only for Structured tasks
